not dumb at all! start your run with the keepsake from poseidon equipped and you become EXTREMELY likely to see him! the hammers on the other hand are super rare and just RNG lol
I beat Chronos today with a Lim and Oros build with the Pan aspect. The one that when you cast your circle and throw daggers, they are redirected to the enemies on the circle. That and Hestia's boons, and oh boy, that's a lot of damage
Also very well works with Zeus special + Hestia attack and their Duo boon 2 status effects (blitz from special and scorch from duo) means also works priviledge status (+50% for all damage) And Zeus boon for lightnings by prime mqgick
hilariously, this build has an incidental upside too. if you're ever below 50% HP, just spam-cast your Omega Special into a wall until you're at 50% HP again.
If you use the sister blades with the hook knife and projectile upgrade (the one that fires 16 around you) it does INSANE single target dps. It does even more depending on how large the hitbox of the enemy is. Im talking bursts upwards of 1000 to 2000 depending on your boons. It makes no sense. You can spam it too so its just insane.
yeah this is my favorite build in the game right now. if you can get crit with Artemis or the guaranteed crit off of using your hex upgrade in the path of stars you can one shot everything
@@pixel6913 Aspect is Pan, I assume "hook knife" refers to the shape of the blades so you get the weapon right but it could be the hammer upgrade that makes the knifes go back and forth.
@@wisteriapetals Aspect of Pan makes the upgrade that fire projectiles around you a lot more reliable too. If you use a boon that allows to throw the glyph cast, you can deal significant damage without getting close
Decided to try the build got supper lucky got hammer on spawn and posideon boon cause i had his keepsake on rerolled for splash. Build was insane zeus bounce effect came in handy too felt like a god ngl
Double Moonshot + Poseidon’s Special was how I managed to beat Chronos for the first time!! Sad that I haven’t gotten Double Moonshot again from hammers -.-
Has anyone tried a skull build with the duo boon from hephaestus / Hera. It requires no boons on your special and attack, but in return you get a +200% damage on both. I was able to curb stomp everything with ease and I didn't even get the +2 upgrade to your skulls
so the reason you need to go Poseidon waves is bc it also add flat on-hit damage. So its not just a knock back behind it that does that damage, its every single special used.
You're leaving a lot of damage on the table. Your first attack should be an omega. Get that 30% buff from arcana. And always keep using your cast. Get that cast damage bonus going. Posidon special + hestia's cast + slip + posi hest duo is absolutely busted. Getting that Hestia cast gets the two curse effect thing going. Also get demeter's sprint for just another way to throw a debuff onto an enemy. This build melted Kronos in about 20 seconds
Me and my Brother love the Apollo Cast + Zeus duo boon with the Cast Axe Aspect - the +30 cost Duo boon works of a Axe special charge as well so instead of costing 45 (and double charge time) it only costs 25 (Axe charged special). Nice bonus is to get Hepfestus Special for 400 Bursts every now and then. Use Apollo Trinket 1st then Zeus to try and get 2 Epic + boons of your Choice.
I have aspect of Momus but can't upgrade it yet (working on it). Do you still recommend this aspect over a fully upgraded Melinoe for special builds? I guess so since you are only using special so even the little bit of extra power is more valuable than Melinoe's aspect, right?
Ha. I had made the same exact build right before seeing this video. It truly is ridiculous. I still think aspect of Pan has more burst potential but this is a nice easy to play safe build that doesnt need to use magic. just spam special. I also got an epic support fire from arty and it was fun seeing the amount of arrows spamming out.
Perfect except for one thing, if you want to see even bigger numbers then run this build with "white antler". Usually by the 2nd room if my HP isnt past 30 then i just switch to that
Do you mean why is he not using his Omega special move (hold Special to throw large ball)? Because with the hammer he has (double moonshot), spamming special is the best for higher DPS
My favorite build uses the umbral flame and needs the Hestia boon that makes your special deal scorch. Just spamming the special and getting a bunch of flame orbs surrounding me is just fun
Probably dumb question, how are you starting the run with the Poseidon boons already?
not dumb at all! start your run with the keepsake from poseidon equipped and you become EXTREMELY likely to see him! the hammers on the other hand are super rare and just RNG lol
I did a bit the same in the normal path, but i taked Hestia, so i become a fck dragon
nice. a *fuck dragon*

whats the hook knife? is it an aspect or a hammer?

@@thomasb5307yup talking about the hammer upgrade. It should work with pan tho, even more so
@@wisteriapetals Aspect of Pan makes the upgrade that fire projectiles around you a lot more reliable too.

btw this build has been patched as of jul 5th, just wanted to make yall aware. the double shot hammer was reworked
I absolutely love that Circe's boon that makes you smaller gives you chipmunk voice 🤣
Decided to try the build got supper lucky got hammer on spawn and posideon boon cause i had his keepsake on rerolled for splash. Build was insane zeus bounce effect came in handy too felt like a god ngl
This is wicked..gotta jump into this build..just started playing this game 3 days ago. Its awesome
Double Moonshot + Poseidon’s Special was how I managed to beat Chronos for the first time!! Sad that I haven’t gotten Double Moonshot again from hammers -.-
You should absolutely take the slip. It allows use to inflict an extra curse, which triggers the +50% damage arcana. That thing is crazy powerful.
I got this earlier today with a lvl.5 heroic Aphrodite on my special. +360% damage, and the game has a surprisingly lenient definition of "nearby".
Has anyone tried a skull build with the duo boon from hephaestus / Hera. It requires no boons on your special and attack, but in return you get a +200% damage on both. I was able to curb stomp everything with ease and I didn't even get the +2 upgrade to your skulls
Only con with this build is it's not advisable for people with epilepsy.
Zeus works great as well.
so the reason you need to go Poseidon waves is bc it also add flat on-hit damage. So its not just a knock back behind it that does that damage, its every single special used.
@@SyrobePLUSin that case you should've opted for a slip boo as well, you probably missed out on 20 to 40% damage
@@SyrobePLUS makes sense. Imma try it out once I get the aspects.
@@SyrobePLUS The prime boon from Zeus also add on-hit damage on the special
This build got me though my 20 fear run!
Took a few runs to get lucky with the hammer but it sure did a wonder again Chronos!

did some of this without realizing on an earlier run and decided to look up builds and found this. Thank u !!!!!
Sisterblades be putting up like 3k per hit with the proper build without having to get carpal tunnel 😂
just got my first cronos kill in 24 minutes using this build lmao it's so broken
What should i do to make it work? I just started playing yesterday and I can defeat hecate but i cannot pass the first one of two runs of oceanus :(
It thought I was quick with 10 minutes with this build 😂
I think we should call it the "super soaker" build
Hopefully in the future Netflix will get this game like Hades 1 hehe I am addicted playing this on my iPhone.
I have aspect of Momus but can't upgrade it yet (working on it). Do you still recommend this aspect over a fully upgraded Melinoe for special builds? I guess so since you are only using special so even the little bit of extra power is more valuable than Melinoe's aspect, right?

Yeaaa I figured someone would do this once I saw that Daedalus upgrade 🤣 awesome
Moon axe omega special crit builds still get the best dps i've seen. I've hit 1.3k crits back to back with high channel speed
Wouldnt it be much better with aphro’s special and her duo boon with Poseidon? The special damage that aphro provides is unmatched.
Is there a way to setup getting an early hammer like in the last game?
How did you do it in the last game? I didn't see anyway except not taking a god boon at least but there is no guarantee
@@Bloodlf The mirror in Zag's room gave you the option to boost the chances of hammers and poms of power.
Perfect except for one thing, if you want to see even bigger numbers then run this build with "white antler". Usually by the 2nd room if my HP isnt past 30 then i just switch to that
9:15 you look dumb
@@SyrobePLUS yeah you right, gimme that pin of shame...I'll hold that L proudly, must have missed it
Thank you
not even close to highest dps but okay, the dagger special seeking targets is the best dps I think, you can do 3000-4000 damage per special
is there a way to proc deadlus hammer more often? i mean at the begining or is just soft reset til get it?
Awesome video. I do this all the time but I find it a bit annoying repeating just 1 move. I feel like I'm cheating the game.
How do I get consecration of ashes?
Flat dmg on Staff is absolutely broken
Do you think playing with keyboard is better than controller or is just a preference?
for me it is a Preference (and i dont have a controller).
I'd better try it before they nerf it
How to get daedalus hammer at start?
it's just random. Don't know the exact % number though.
I just go into this game. Why are you not using any magic with your special? Thanks.
Do you mean why is he not using his Omega special move (hold Special to throw large ball)? Because with the hammer he has (double moonshot), spamming special is the best for higher DPS
Figured it out but thank you!@@alexiluffy216
How to guarantee a hammer at the start or is just RNG ?
RNG just let urself get rekt by the 1st room mobs until you get it tbh
Hey fella, where do you get the aspect of momus or how can you change the aspects????@@SyrobePLUS
Rip this build LMAO
Is there a way to garentee hammers ?
Not really, but you're guaranteed 1 for surface, and 2-3 for underground. Icarus gives you a random one for 10 encounters
My favorite build uses the umbral flame and needs the Hestia boon that makes your special deal scorch. Just spamming the special and getting a bunch of flame orbs surrounding me is just fun
